Hi everyone.

I'm from Bournemouth and fish the southern central coast of the UK from the Solent, Bournemouth Bay, Isle of Purbeck and Chesil Beach areas. Feel fortunate to live down here the fishings quite good and theres a good variety of marks to fish.

Been sea fishing just over a year now concentrating on match fishing last year(good intro) and am now trying to target species instead(learning loads this way). Will be picking up a sit on top kayak soon suitable for inshore/harbour/estuary fishing (conditions permitting) and hope to fish the 1st UK Sea Kayak Fishing Tournament at Exmouth, Devon in May & also hope to pull out a nice plump flounder from Poole Harbour before the months out(..yeah right!).

Visit other angling forums (pseudo names: Speciman - Tony Wan"Asia's Finest") & already know a few members (Paul & Geejay).

Cheers

Simon

2 years back I fished the Wessex Flounder League and thats a lot of fun I hope to give it another go at some point.
As for the Sea Kayak Fishing sounds interesting and good fun I would imagine.
